Lamp post, probably contemporary with the 1910-1911 town hall.
Metal, probably cast-iron. One of a group of 5 outside the
town hall, originally lit by gas, later converted to
electricity. Thick cylindrical base with an egg-and-dart
moulding below a baluster-shaped foor with acanthus leaf
decoration. Cylindrical standard with 3 globes, the outer
globes on the ladder rest with scrolled brackets to the
standard.
An attractive example of historic street furniture and
important for group value with the town hall which has some
fine external ironwork.
